If Lakers sign Shaq to vet min I will be very disappointed. Because their cap space is just as tight as Rockets. The solution is a sign and trade with Bulls then, send back Clemons, TPE and SRP.
He supposedly doesn't want to go to the Rockets for anything close to the minimum. So short of trading House the money isn't going to be there. We are running into the situation of butting up against the apron, and that is why at some point someone is going to be moved to open up money for smaller contracts..... they tried to move Gordon without success, and if the rumblings are true, they may have to move Westbrook anyway.
I'm finally ready to move on from Westbrook, Bulls would be a good trading partner. Rockets can then kill 2 birds with 1 Stoner. https://tradenba.com/trades/Afhpzkvch ORL: Thad Young, Danuel House + Bulls FRP + Rockets FRP CHI: Russ Westbrook, Eric Gordon HOU: Otto Porter Jr., Aaron Gordon, Tomas Satoransky + Bulls SRP *Bulls Sign & Trade Shaq Harrison (4.5M for 2 years) to Rockets for TPE, SRP + Chris Clemons *Rockets save 2.2M Harden/Satoransky Harrison/Nwaba/Brown Porter/Tucker AG/Bruno Wood/Cousins Now this is a lineup we can go to war with.
That bad eh? I never saw him play as terribly as this. Seems to me that dude would always come in for garbage time and grab 10 quick points and throw some dimes to Stein.
